A Journey to Mayda
According to early cartographers, Mayda is a non-existent island in the North Atlantic that has been shown on several published maps at various points in history.
Aside from being a provocative name for a creative collective, Mayda is also a metaphor for working in an ever changing landscape.
Carl will use his own wayward multi-disciplined journey as a case study for how to “Navigate Future Stories”, or how to work with focus while embracing distraction as a creative catalyst.
